I fixed it by updating my Kernel to 2.6.32-020632-generic Apparently there is something wrong with the Intel Realtek ALC889A sound Driver which is updated in the new kernel. Follow these steps in order to update your Kernel. Download the deb files here. http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/v2.6.32/
you will need 3 packages from the kernel version that you choose (the final 2.6.32 kernel has the release date of 03-Dec-2009)....download: 1)linux-headers-2.6.32-020632_2.6.32-020632_all.deb 2)linux-headers-2.6.32-020632-generic_2.6.32-020632**either i386 or amd64**.deb ...depending on which architecture you are using 3)linux-image-2.6.32-020632-generic_2.6.32-020632**either i386 or amd64**.deb ...depending on which architecture you are using Make sure you do this in the order listed and back up all your data. Only do this if you are so pissed about your sound not working your willing to risk crashing and re-installing your os!!! Thanks to some one else for figuring this out I have since lost the link. My sound is now working flawlessly but now my MCE remote doesn't work?? The LIRC remotes list has changed for some reason. Oh well my sound is definitely more important than the remote. -- OpenAL Broken in Jaunty https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/311853 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
